Make no mistake, this is an emotionally disturbed individual who should have been IN JAIL long ago.the video does work, just click on the PLAY icon

I am talking about Amy Bishop, a woman, following being denied tenure at the University of Alabama -Hunstville, killed THREE PEOPLE:

Killed in Friday's shooting were Gopi K. Podila, the chairman of the Department of Biological Sciences, and professors Adriel Johnson and Maria Ragland Davis. The Chair was Indian, the other two dead are BLACK.

and left another 3 wounded.

Two of them - Joseph Leahy and staffer Stephanie Monticciolo - were in critical condition early Sunday. The third, Luis Cruz-Vera, had been released from the hospital.

Now, I don't know about Leahy and Monticciolo, but my money that Luis Cruz-Vera is Hispanic.

6 victims, and 4 of them non-White.

Do you know the small percentage of Black folks that go into the sciences, and how hard it is to find one, let alone TWO to KILL?

But, peel away the onion, and you get a darker story: this isn't the first time this woman has KILLED.

She 'accidentally' killed her ACCOMPLISHED MUSICIAN BROTHER in 1986. Charges were never filed, and now, folks going back to look at the case - the paperwork disappeared.

In 1986, Bishop shot and killed her 18-year-old brother with a shotgun at their Braintree, Mass., home. She told police at the time that she had been trying to learn how to use the gun, which her father had bought for protection, when it accidentally discharged. In all, three shots were fired: Braintree police Chief Paul Frazier said she shot once into a wall, then shot her brother, then fired a third time into the ceiling.

Amy Bishop, held in the slayings of three and the wounding of three on Friday at the University of Alabama Huntsville, was suspected but never charged in a 1993 attempted mail bombing of a Harvard Medical School professor.

The Boston Globe web site says Amy Bishop and her husband, James Anderson, were questioned and the home they shared searched after a package containing two bombs was sent to the home of a professor and doctor at Boston's Children's Hospital.

I'm just trying to follow the dots. I'm trying to figure out a circumstance where ANYBODY BLACK could 'accidentally' KILL THEIR SIBLING, and NOT be shown the inside of a prison for some amount of time. I'm trying to figure out a circumstance where then said Black individual would then just go onto school, and be suspected in a BOMBING, and the PREVIOUS ' accidental' shooting wouldn't come up in the database on said Black person. I tried to wrap my mind around the possibility of this Black person still being among us to the point where they'd be able to get a PhD and then begin teaching college students.

Um.....I can't see it ever happening.

Sometimes, you don't want to bring race into things, but sometimes, like I said, it just slaps you in the face, because you know, to the bottom of your gut, that no average Black person would ever get away with it.

"The two parties have combined against us to nullify our power by a ‘gentleman's agreement' of non-recognition, no matter how we vote ... May God write us down as asses if ever again we are found putting our trust in either the Republican or the Democratic Parties." -- W.E.B. DuBois (1922)
